Lily was thanked for the changes she has made to various templates on TestWiki, and for requesting the CharInsert and EditTools extensions be enabled on TestWiki. She has additionally been granted bureaucrat rights on TestWiki.

Hi Doug, thank you for your offer to get bureaucrat rights, I appreciate that very much. These rights would be helpful for my tests, so a big big yes thank you, Lily (Manuela) (Lilypond Wiki · talk and I will listen · my little garden ) 07:09, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi Lily, no problem, and thank you for the positive changes you've made to TestWiki's template documentation as well. A small note regarding bureaucrat on TestWiki—it doesn't include managewiki access, but does include nearly everything else (other than granting certain user groups) and restricted abuse filter actions. Nevertheless, if there's a change you require made in ManageWiki, any Consul can usually do this for you, with only limited exceptions where a community discussion may first be required. As a bureaucrat, though, you can also grant rights at TestWiki:Request permissions, should you feel so inclined.

Hi Doug, actually I was hoping that I could add some extensions with bureaucrat rights, in particular mw:Extension:CharInsert and mw:Extension:DynamicPageList (Wikimedia). Without MediaWiki:Edittools editing is rather hard. Is there any particular reason that Edittools is not activated in this wiki?

Hi Lily, as far as I'm aware, those extensions probably weren't enabled as we may not have realized what they do or didn't have a use for them. I was actually thinking about enabling DynamicPageList, and CharInsert looks pretty non-controversial, so this is  done.

Hi Doug, thank you for you quick reaction. When you edit next time you will see what CharInsert and Edittools is doing Lily (Manuela) (Lilypond Wiki · talk and I will listen · my little garden ) 14:00, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

@Lily: No problem. Ah, yes, I noticed at least one of those changes. Either CharInsert or EditTools is where those links come from in the WikiEditor. We had those setup on Meta, Commons, and Template Wiki, as far as I'm aware, but not TestWiki for some reason. Thank you for doing that here, and also for your helpful improvements to our templates and template documentation. I particularly like the change(s) you made to {{delete}}.
